In the dark of night

A hunter hides in shadows

Only the moon sees

Light of moon,

Shine on me

Enraptured,

In your fantasy

Shadowed face,

Mysterious glow

Illuminate,

An open window

Allow the night

To sail inside

As stars,

Together,

Slowly glide

Yes, brighten up

A world of gloom

I feel inside

This empty room

Lines across his face foretell, forgotten times, he knew so well

Shadowed visions haunt his skin, faded, buried deep within

A darkened mind, lost in space, the shredded features of his face

Flashing by like meteors, reaching down into his core

Celestial ebony, blackness of night, knowing he’d never again see the light

Shining, in an unforeseen glow, sightless, he fights, as the memories flow

Waiting for Shadows

Whimsical shadows that play in the light

Taunting and teasing you every night

Hiding in corners, they fill you with dread

You’re starting to wonder, is this in your head?

Or are they just playing, these spirits so dark?

Choosing to haunt, on a whim, on a lark

Then disappearing from view, once again

Wondering if they’ll return and when

Lying awake, with the night, you’re attune

Waiting, for shadows, in the light of the moon

Casting shadows, you illuminate night

Take away the darkness, shining bright

In the sky above, to the Earth below

Ethereal beams transcend, and glow

Giving me comfort, my fears you allay

Celestial body, in the dark, I can stay
